TIL soaking potatoes makes air fryer fries way crispier

My fries were always soggy until I soaked them in water before air frying. Now they come out perfect every time.

Hold on, I have to disagree. Soaking them can make them come out soggy, not crispy. All that water just means they steam in the oven or pan. I always skip the soak and just dry them off well before cooking. That way they get a real crunch without the extra mess. Soaking seems like a hassle for no real gain.

A quick cold water rinse, then drying them super well, was a total game changer for me.
